< 1 Samuel 25 >

1 [Soon after that], Samuel died, and all the Israeli people gathered and mourned for him. They buried his body outside his home in Ramah. Then David and his men moved to the Maon Desert.
Samuel je umrl in vsi Izraelci so se zbrali skupaj, ga objokovali in ga pokopali v njegovi hiši v Rami. In David je vstal ter odšel dol k Paránski divjini.
2 In Maon [town] there was a man who owned land in Carmel, [a nearby village]. He was very rich; he owned 3,000 sheep and 1,000 goats.
Tam je bil mož v Maónu, katerega posesti so bile v Karmelu. Mož je bil zelo velik in imel je tri tisoč ovc in tisoč koz, in svoje ovce je strigel v Karmelu.
3 His name was Nabal; he was a descendant of Caleb. His wife Abigail was a wise and beautiful woman, but Nabal was very cruel and treated people very unkindly [IDM].
Torej moževo ime je bilo Nabál in ime njegove žene Abigájila. Bila je ženska dobrega razumevanja in krasnega obličja, toda mož je bil skopušen in hudoben v svojih dejanjih. Bil je iz Kalébove hiše.
4 One day while David [and his men] were in the desert, someone told him that Nabal was cutting the wool from his sheep.
David je v divjini slišal, da je Nabál strigel svoje ovce.
5 So David told ten of his men, “Go to Nabal at Carmel and greet him for me.
David je poslal ven deset mladeničev in David je mladeničem rekel: »Povzpnite se gor do Karmela in pojdite k Nabálu ter ga pozdravite v mojem imenu.
6 Then tell to him this message from me, ‘I wish/desire that things will go well for you and your family and for everything that you possess.
Tako boste rekli njemu, ki živi v uspevanju: ›Mir bodi tako tebi in mir bodi tvoji hiši in mir bodi vsemu, kar imaš.
7 ‘heard people say that you are cutting the wool from your sheep. Previously, when your shepherds were among us, we did not harm them. All the time that your shepherds were among us at Camel, we did not steal any sheep from them.
Sedaj sem slišal, da si imel strižce. Torej tvoji pastirji, ki so bili z nami, jih nismo poškodovali niti jim ni ničesar zmanjkalo, vse dokler so bili v Karmelu.
8 You can ask your servants if this is true, and they will tell you [that it is true]. We have come here at a time when you are celebrating, so I ask you to please be kind to us and give these men whatever extra food you have, for me, David, and my men to eat.’”
Vprašaj svoje mladeniče in ti bodo pokazali. Zato naj tvoji mladeniči najdejo naklonjenost v tvojih očeh, kajti prišli smo na dober dan. Daj, prosim te, karkoli pride k tvoji roki, svojim služabnikom in svojemu sinu Davidu.‹«
9 When David’s men arrived where Nabal was, they gave David’s message to him, and they waited [for him to reply]. But Nabal spoke harshly to them.
Ko so Davidovi mladeniči prišli, so v Davidovem imenu govorili Nabálu glede na vse te besede in prenehali.
10 He said to them, “Who [does] this man, this son of Jesse, [think that he] is? [DOU, RHQ] There are many slaves who are running away from their masters at the present time, [and it seems to me that he is just one of them].
Nabál je odgovoril Davidovim služabnikom in rekel: »Kdo je David? Kdo je Jesejev sin? Današnje dni je mnogo služabnikov, ki se odtrgajo, vsak mož od svojega gospodarja.
11 I give bread and water to the men who are cutting the wool from my sheep, and I give them meat from animals that I have slaughtered. Why should I take some of those things and give them to a group of outlaws [RHQ]? (Who knows where they have come from?/I do not even know where they have come from.)” [RHQ]
Mar naj torej vzamem svoj kruh, svojo vodo in svoje meso, ki sem ga zaklal za svoje strižce in ga dam možem, za katere ne vem, od kod so?«
12 Then David’s men returned and told him what Nabal had said.
Tako so Davidovi mladeniči obrnili svojo pot in ponovno odšli in prišli ter mu povedali vse te besede.
13 When David heard that, he told his men, “[We are going to kill Nabal; ] fasten your swords!” So he fastened on his sword and about 400 men fastened on their swords and went with David. There were 200 of his men who stayed with their supplies.
David je svojim možem rekel: »Opašite vsak mož svoj meč.« Opasali so vsak mož svoj meč in tudi David je opasal svoj meč in tam se je dvignilo za Davidom okoli štiristo mož. Dvesto pa jih je ostalo pri stvareh.
14 One of Nabal’s servants [found out what David and his men were planning to do, so he] went to Nabal’s wife Abigail and said to her, “David sent some messengers from the desert to greet our master Nabal, but Nabal only yelled at them.
Toda eden izmed mladeničev je povedal Nabálovi ženi Abigájili, rekoč: »Glej, David je iz divjine poslal poslance, da pozdravijo našega gospodarja, on pa se jim je posmehoval.
15 All the time that we were in the fields close to them, those men of David were very kind to us. They did not harm us. They did not steal anything from us.
Toda možje so bili zelo dobri do nas in nismo bili poškodovani niti nismo pogrešali nobene stvari, dokler smo bili seznanjeni z njimi, ko smo bili na poljih.
16 They protected us during the daytime and during the night. They were like a wall [MET] around us to protect us while we were taking care of our sheep.
Bili so nam zid, tako podnevi kakor ponoči, ves čas smo bili z njimi, čuvajoč ovce.
17 So now you should think about it and decide what you can do. [If you do not do something, ] terrible things will happen to our master and to all his family. Nabal is an extremely wicked man, with the result that [he will not heed anyone when] that person tries to tell him anything [that he should do].”
Zdaj torej vedi in preudari, kaj boš storila, kajti zlo je določeno zoper našega gospodarja in zoper vso njegovo družino, kajti on je tak Beliálov sin, da človek ne more govoriti z njim.«
18 [When] Abigail [heard that, she] very quickly gathered 200 loaves [of bread], and also got two leather bags full of wine, the meat from five sheep, a bushel of roasted grain, 100 packs of raisins, and 200 packs of dried figs. She put all those things on donkeys.
Potem se je Abigájila podvizala in vzela dvesto hlebov, dva vinska meha, pet pripravljenih ovc, pet mer opraženega žita, sto grozdov rozin in dvesto figovih kolačev in jih položila na osle.
19 Then she told her servants, “Go ahead of me. I will follow you.” But she did not tell her husband [what she was going to do].
Svojim služabnikom je rekla: »Pojdite naprej pred menoj. Glejte, jaz pridem za vami.« Toda svojemu soprogu Nabálu ni povedala.
20 David and his men [had left the place where they were staying and were on the road to Nabal’s property. They] were coming down a hill when they met Abigail.
To je bilo tako, medtem ko je jahala na oslu, da je prišla dol ob zavetju hriba in glej, David in njegovi možje so prihajali dol, nasproti njej in jih je srečala.
21 David had been saying to his men, “It was useless for us to protect that man and all his possessions here in this desert. We did not steal anything that belonged to him, but he has done evil to me in return for our good [things we did for him].
Torej David je rekel: »Zagotovo sem v divjini zaman varoval vse, kar je imel ta pajdaš, tako da ni zmanjkalo ničesar od vsega, kar je pripadalo njemu, on pa mi je povrnil zlo za dobro.
22 I hope/desire that God will strike me and kill me [IDM] if he or even one of his men [IDM] is still alive tomorrow morning!”
Tako in še več naj tudi Bog stori Davidovim sovražnikom, če do jutranje svetlobe pustim od vsega, kar pripada njemu, karkoli, kar lula proti zidu.«
23 When Abigail saw David, she quickly got down from her donkey and bowed before him, with her face touching the ground.
Ko je Abigájila zagledala Davida, je pohitela in razbremenila osla in pred Davidom padla na svoj obraz in se priklonila do tal
24 Then she prostrated herself at David’s feet and said to him, “Sir, I deserve to be punished [for what my husband has done]. Please listen to what I say to you.
in padla ob njegovih stopalih ter rekla: »Nad menoj, moj gospod, nad menoj naj bo ta krivičnost. Naj tvoja pomočnica, prosim te, govori v tvoji pozornosti in poslušaj besede svoje pomočnice.
25 Please do not pay attention to [IDM] what this worthless man Nabal has said. His name means ‘fool’, and he surely is a foolish man. But I, who am [willing to be] your servant, did not see the messengers whom you sent to him.
Naj se moj gospod, prosim te, ne ozira na tega Beliálovega moža, celó Nabála, kajti kakor je njegovo ime, takšen je on; Nabál je njegovo ime in bedaštvo je z njim, toda jaz, tvoja pomočnica, nisem videla mladeničev svojega gospoda, ki si jih poslal.
26 Yahweh has prevented you from getting revenge on anyone and killing anyone. I hope/desire that as surely as Yahweh lives and as surely as you live, your enemies will be [cursed] like Nabal will be.
Zdaj torej, moj gospod, kakor živi Gospod in kakor živi tvoja duša, glede na to, da te je Gospod zadržal pred tem, da bi prihajal prelit kri in pred tem, da bi se maščeval s svojo lastno roko, naj bodo torej tvoji sovražniki in tisti, ki iščejo zlo mojemu gospodu, kakor Nabál.
27 I have brought a gift for you and for the men who are with you.
Naj bo sedaj ta blagoslov, ki ga je tvoja pomočnica prinesla mojemu gospodu, dan mladeničem, ki sledijo mojemu gospodu.
28 Please forgive me if I have done anything wrong to you. Yahweh will surely [reward you by] allowing many of your descendants to become kings of Israel, because you are fighting the battles that Yahweh [wants you to fight]. And [I know that] throughout all your life you have not done anything wrong.
Prosim te, odpusti prekršek svoje pomočnice, kajti Gospod bo zagotovo naredil mojemu gospodu zanesljivo hišo, ker moj gospod bojuje Gospodove bitke in vse tvoje dni zlo ni bilo najdeno v tebi.
29 Even when those who are trying to kill you pursue you, you are safe, because Yahweh your God takes care of you. You will be [protected as though you were] [MET] a bundle that he has safely tied up. But your enemies will [disappear as fast as stones] that are hurled from a sling.
Vendar se je vzdignil človek, da te preganja in da išče tvojo dušo, toda duša mojega gospoda bo zvezana v svežnju življenja z Gospodom, tvojim Bogom. Duše tvojih sovražnikov, njih bo zalučal ven kakor iz srede prače.
30 Yahweh has promised to do good things for you, and he will do what he has promised. And he will cause you to become the ruler of the Israeli people.
In zgodilo se bo, ko bo Gospod storil mojemu gospodu glede na vse dobro, kar je govoril glede tebe in te določil vladarja nad Izraelom,
31 When that happens, [you will be glad that you did not kill any] people in Nabal’s household. You will not think that you deserve to be punished for having taken revenge yourself and killed innocent people. And when Yahweh enables you to successfully [become the king], please do not forget [to be kind to] me.”
da to ne bo žalost tebi niti prizadeto srce mojemu gospodu ali da si brez vzroka prelil kri ali da se je moj gospod sam maščeval, temveč ko bo Gospod dobro postopal z mojim gospodom, takrat se spomni svoje pomočnice.«
32 David replied to Abigail, “I praise Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship], because he sent you to [talk with] me.
David je rekel Abigájili: »Blagoslovljen bodi Gospod, Izraelov Bog, ki te je ta dan poslal, da me srečaš
33 I hope/desire that Yahweh will bless you for being very wise. You have prevented me from taking revenge myself and killing many people [MTY] today.
in blagoslovljen bodi tvoj nasvet in blagoslovljena bodi ti, ki si me ta dan zadržala pred prihajanjem, da prelijem kri in pred maščevanjem sebe s svojo lastno roko.
34 Just as surely as Yahweh the God whom we Israelis [worship] is alive, he has prevented me from harming you. If you had not come quickly to talk to me, neither Nabal nor even one of Nabal’s men [IDM] would be still alive tomorrow morning.”
Kajti zagotovo, kakor Gospod, Izraelov Bog, živi, ki me je zadržal pred tem, da ti škodujem, razen če ne bi pohitela in prišla, da me srečaš, zagotovo ne bi do jutranje svetlobe Nabálu ostalo karkoli, kar lula proti zidu.«
35 Then David accepted the gifts that Abigail had brought to him. He said to her, “I hope/desire that things will go well for you. I have heard what you said, and I will do what you have requested.”
Tako je David iz njene roke prejel to, kar mu je prinesla in ji rekel: »Pojdi gor v miru k svoji hiši. Glej, prisluhnil sem tvojemu glasu in sprejel tvojo osebo.«
36 When Abigail returned to Nabal, he was in his house, having a big celebration like kings have. He was very drunk and feeling very happy. So Abigail did not say anything to him that night [about her meeting with David].
Abigájila je prišla k Nabálu in glej, v svoji hiši je imel zabavo, kakor kraljevo zabavo. Nabálovo srce je bilo veselo znotraj njega, kajti bil je zelo pijan. Zato mu ni ničesar povedala, manj ali več, do jutranje svetlobe.
37 The next morning, when he was no longer drunk, she told him everything [that had happened when she talked with David]. [Immediately] (he had a stroke/a blood vessel burst in his brain) and he became paralyzed [MET].
Toda zjutraj se je pripetilo, ko je vino odšlo iz Nabála in mu je njegova žena povedala te stvari, da je njegovo srce znotraj njega umrlo in je postal kakor kamen.
38 About ten days later Yahweh struck him [again] and he died.
Pripetilo se je okoli deset dni kasneje, da je Gospod udaril Nabála, da je umrl.
39 After David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, “Praise Yahweh! Nabal insulted me, but Yahweh (vindicated me/got revenge for me). He has prevented me from [doing anything] wrong. And he has punished Nabal for the wrong that he did.” Then David sent [messengers] to Abigail, to ask her if she would become his wife.
Ko je David slišal, da je bil Nabál mrtev, je rekel: »Blagoslovljen bodi Gospod, ki je zagovarjal zadevo moje graje pred Nabálovo roko in je svojega služabnika obvaroval pred zlom, kajti Gospod je Nabálovo zlobnost povrnil na njegovo lastno glavo.« In David je poslal in se posvetoval z Abigájilo, da si jo vzame k sebi za ženo.
40 His servants went to Carmel and said to Abigail, “David sent us to take you to become his wife.”
Ko so Davidovi služabniki prišli k Abigájili v Karmel, so ji spregovorili, rekoč: »David nas je poslal k tebi, da te vzame k sebi za ženo.«
41 Abigail bowed down with her face touching the ground. Then she told [the messengers to tell David], “[I am happy to become your wife]. I will be your servant. And I am willing to wash the feet of your slaves.”
Vzdignila se je, se priklonila na svoj obraz k zemlji in rekla: »Glej, naj bo tvoja pomočnica služabnica, da umiva stopala služabnikov mojega gospoda.«
42 Abigail quickly got on her donkey and went with David’s messengers. Five of her maids went with her. [When she arrived where David was, ] she became his wife.
Abigájila je pohitela, vstala ter jahala na oslu s petimi svojimi gospodičnami, ki so šle za njo in odšla je za Davidovimi poslanci ter postala njegova žena.
43 David had previously married Ahinoam, a woman from Jezreel [town near Carmel]. So both Abigail and Ahinoam were now David’s wives.
David je vzel tudi Ahinóam iz Jezreéla in obe izmed njiju sta bili njegovi ženi.
44 King Saul’s daughter Michal was also David’s wife, but Saul had given her to Laish’s son Paltiel, who was from Gallim [town].
Toda Savel je dal svojo hčer Mihálo, Davidovo ženo, Paltíju, Lajiševemu sinu, ki je bil iz Galíma.
